INTRODUCTION

ABOUT J&B

J&B, make installations that are usually conceptual in nature. They work from an anonymity of the artist, who work in a perfect symbiosis. A creative open -mind structure with an artistic synergistic effect. The work starts from a critical reflection on the human being and humanity subjected to a conceptual process. Balancing on the border between attraction and repulsion with a wry blend of aesthetics and violence.

Three-dimensional work, not to create an imaginary space but to alleviate a reality without the softening corners. The work is a template from which a world unfolds. An animated reality seen through the eyes of an outsider, not an alternative to the constructed world in which we live. It is the relationship between the various elements, materials and structures that give the work its shape. This relationship is essential to the creation of a meaning. The reaction-action between the original meaning of the materials and the new ones that they represent.

This resulting device that exists of material and space make the work. A translation of the visual to the verbal is therefore not straightforward, there are digressions. The work is a form of communication, there is no academic approach needed. It is temporary and photographed or documented. What remains, is what can be considered as a new iconography.
